Inner Galactic
Inner Galactic is an immersive dance performance incorporating music, spoken word, and theater as well as video, costume, light and visual design. This adventurous show uses outer space as a metaphor for the vast and complex inner workings of the heart.
Inspired by space travel, the writing of Carl Sagan, the life cycle of stars and a general love of sci-fi/fantasy story telling, Inner Galactic is a wild ride through joy, humor and heartbreak, exploring how we are truly "made of star stuff".

Co-created, produced and performed by Maya Soto + Nico Tower.
Proudly based in Seattle, WA, Maya Soto (Dancer/Choreographer) + Nico Tower (Musician/Multidisciplinary Artist) have partnered to create this new exciting dance centered show. Inner Galactic, is their first endeavor as a creative team. For more than a decade Maya and Nico have maintained successful careers in dance and music. Maya as a performer, teaching artist, award winning arts educator, and choreographer. Nico as a passionate music educator, visual designer, arts outreach advocate, and touring composer/performer.
Maya Soto has produced 6 evening length shows in Seattle with great success over the last 10 years. Most recently, Gathering Bones (2013) premiered in Seattle to sold out houses and rave reviews. The show then went on to tour the west coast. Over the past 13 years, Nico Tower has released 10 albums, and presented her original works in more than 40 cities. As independent artists, we have been commissioned by nearly every performance festival on the West Coast including: Northwest New Works Festival, NextFest NW, Dance+ Festival, Seattle International Dance Festival, Juan De Fuca Festival of the Arts, BOOST Dance Festival, and the Arts in Nature Festival.
The creation of Inner Galactic has been made possible through Velocity Dance Center's Creative Resident Program, in special partnership with 10 (SEA) with additional support from Exit Space - From Studio to Stage program (SEA) and an Artistic Retreat at Higher Ground Community in Bend, Oregon.
